Income Taxes	Income Taxes The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended April 2, 2016 were 23.9% and 25.2%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended April 4, 2015 were 22.5% and 25.8%, respectively. The effective tax rates for these periods are lower than the U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily due to a significant portion of our earnings that come from foreign operations with lower tax rates and the recognition and timing of U.S. research and development tax credits. In addition, we also benefited from the reversal of accruals for certain tax exposures outside the U.S. whose statutes of limitations expired during these periods.
